Extract

In the Classical Quarterly of April, 1914, I ventured to call in question the explanation of this well-known difficulty put forward by Dr. E G. Hardy in his Roman Laws and Charters. Dr. Hardy has done me the honour of replying to my article in the October Quarterly, but his lengthy argument entirely fails to convince me.

References

1 To those already collected (Lex Agraria 31, Sallust Cat. 17 and 58, De Bello Gallico VIII. 50, Mon. Anc. 21, Tac. Ann. I. 79, III. 55, IV. 67, XV. 33, Hist. II. 20, 56, 62) I may now add two others: Tac. Hist. II. 87, III. 57, where, as in all the above cases, the towns of Italy are meant.

1 Little weight can be assigned to the curious sentence, ‘Tempus est … detegere,’ etc., which is merely a rhetorical device for hastening the formal motion.

1 The comparatively recent appearance of Transpadane Senators is suggested in Tacitus's reference to Veneti and Insubres (Ann. XI. 23).
